Life and all the shananigins!

A bug has hit us, H had it at the start of the week and I have fought through it but today B had to be off school. I know she’s not right as there has been not a peep from her!!! This is the two of them snuggled up as I type, roll on summer!

Sometimes I feel like the housework is never ending so when B announced tonight that she was going to tidy the porch I didnt expect much! The porch is the smallest and messiest place in the house normally so I was very surprised when I saw this………

Despite the snow falling most of the night the girls faced disappointment today when school didn’t close! Thgery did manage to get home from after school club in time to spend half hour building snow castles and messing in the snow!

All about me!

For those of you who didn’t read my old blog, or just want to remind yourself of my background, here goes…….

I’m a 33 year old single mum. I have two daughters, B is 8 and H is 3. I have been single since I was 5 months pregnant with H, and yes they both have the same dad. They see him alternate weekends and holidays unless he is away with work.

When my marriage broke down I moved the length of the country to be back at home near family and unfortunately lost my job due to the credit crunch too. I returned to work in March 2010, as a Family Support Worker. It’s such a rewarding job but hard work too. I’m now in a new relationship with Mr D and have the added dynamics of his children and how they fit into both my life and my girls lives! Being a parent brings some challenges but I wouldn’t change it!

As a single mum it’s a great way to view my opinions and get other points of view. Don’t get me wrong I have some fantastic friends and family on my doorstep and I talk things through with them. Sometimes the view of a perfect stranger is a breeze of fresh air though.

So be warned, I really am getting into this now and I am likely to post some utter drivel as well as some (hopefully) interesting stuff. All I ask is that you comment honestly, I don’t expect my opinions to be agreeable to everyone and at times I will be looking for some opinions that contradict my own.
